Description

本発明は、銀微粒子分散液に関し、特に、RFIDアンテナなどの電子部品の導電回路などの形成に使用する銀微粒子分散液に関する。   The present invention relates to a silver fine particle dispersion, and more particularly, to a silver fine particle dispersion used for forming a conductive circuit of an electronic component such as an RFID antenna.

従来、RFIDアンテナなどの高信頼性が要求される電子部品の配線や導電回路は、マスクした基板上に高価な貴金属のスパッタリングにより形成されている。しかし、スパッタリングにより配線や導電回路を形成する方法では、様々な工程が必要となるため、生産性が高いとはいえず、また、原料として投入される高価な貴金属のすべてが配線や導電回路の形成に使用されるのではないため、資源の有効活用の観点から、他の方法により配線や導電回路を形成することが検討されている。   Conventionally, wiring and conductive circuits of electronic components such as RFID antennas that require high reliability are formed on a masked substrate by sputtering of expensive noble metal. However, the method of forming a wiring or a conductive circuit by sputtering requires various steps, so it cannot be said that the productivity is high, and all of the expensive noble metal that is input as a raw material is not the wiring or conductive circuit. Since it is not used for formation, from the viewpoint of effective utilization of resources, formation of wirings and conductive circuits by other methods has been studied.

近年、電子部品の配線や導電回路などを大量に且つ容易に形成する方法として、印刷技術を応用して配線や導電回路などを形成するプリンテッド・エレクトロニクスが注目されており、金属粒子を分散媒中に分散させた導電性インクを、フレキソ印刷やスクリーン印刷などの様々な印刷技術により基材上に印刷した後に、金属粒子同士を焼結させて配線や導電回路などを形成することが検討されている。   In recent years, as a method for easily forming a large amount of wiring and conductive circuits of electronic components, printed electronics that forms wiring and conductive circuits by applying printing technology has attracted attention. After the conductive ink dispersed in the substrate is printed on the substrate by various printing techniques such as flexographic printing and screen printing, it is considered to sinter metal particles to form wiring, conductive circuits, etc. ing.

一方、金属粒子の粒径が数nm〜数十nm程度になると、比表面積が非常に大きくなって、融点が劇的に低下するため、数μm程度の粒径の金属粒子を分散媒中に分散させた導電性インクを使用して配線や導電回路を形成する場合と比べて、微細な配線や導電回路の形成が可能になるだけでなく、200℃以下の低温で焼成しても金属粒子同士を焼結させることができるようになるので、耐熱性の低い基板などの様々な基板を使用することができるようになる。そのため、粒径が数十nm以下の金属微粒子(金属ナノ粒子)を分散媒中に分散させた導電性インク(金属微粒子分散液)をプリンテッド・エレクトロニクスに応用して電子部品の微細な配線や導電回路を形成することが期待されている。   On the other hand, when the particle size of the metal particles is several nanometers to several tens of nanometers, the specific surface area becomes very large and the melting point decreases dramatically. Compared to the case where wiring or conductive circuit is formed using dispersed conductive ink, not only fine wiring and conductive circuit can be formed, but also metal particles even when fired at a low temperature of 200 ° C. or lower. Since it becomes possible to sinter each other, various substrates such as a substrate having low heat resistance can be used. For this reason, conductive ink (metal fine particle dispersion) in which metal fine particles (metal nanoparticles) with a particle size of several tens of nanometers or less are dispersed in a dispersion medium is applied to printed electronics to make fine wiring and It is expected to form a conductive circuit.

また、粒径が数十nm以下の金属微粒子は、活性が非常に高く、そのままでは粒子として不安定であるので、金属微粒子同士の焼結や凝集を防止して、金属微粒子の独立性や保存安定性を確保するために、長鎖の界面活性剤などの有機物で被覆した金属微粒子をデカンやターピネオールなどの有機溶媒中に分散させた導電性インク(金属微粒子分散液)が提案されている。しかし、金属微粒子を高分子量の長鎖の界面活性剤で被覆すると、その沸点や分解点が高いことから、金属微粒子同士を焼結させて配線や導電回路など形成する際に、金属微粒子の表面の界面活性剤を除去や分解するために、高温で処理する必要があり、耐熱性の低い基板を使用することができなくなるだけでなく、30分〜1時間程度の比較的長時間にわたって熱処理する必要があり、生産性が悪くなる。また、導電性インクの分散媒として有機溶媒を使用すると、廃棄の際に注意を払わなければ環境汚染の原因になり得るし、また、加熱の際や開放系で放置した場合に蒸発した有機成分が周囲に拡散するため、大量に処理する場合に局所排気装置の設置などが必要になるので、有機溶媒を主成分としない分散媒を使用することができれば、環境面および作業面において望ましい。   In addition, metal fine particles having a particle size of several tens of nanometers or less have very high activity and are unstable as particles as they are, so that sintering and aggregation of metal fine particles are prevented, and the independence and storage of metal fine particles are prevented. In order to ensure stability, a conductive ink (metal fine particle dispersion) is proposed in which metal fine particles coated with an organic substance such as a long-chain surfactant are dispersed in an organic solvent such as decane or terpineol. However, when metal fine particles are coated with a high-molecular-weight long-chain surfactant, the boiling point and decomposition point thereof are high, so when the metal fine particles are sintered together to form wiring, conductive circuits, etc., the surface of the metal fine particles In order to remove or decompose the surface active agent, it is necessary to perform the treatment at a high temperature, which makes it impossible to use a substrate having low heat resistance, and heat treatment is performed for a relatively long time of about 30 minutes to 1 hour. It is necessary and productivity is deteriorated. In addition, if an organic solvent is used as a dispersion medium for the conductive ink, it may cause environmental pollution if care is not taken during disposal, and organic components that have evaporated when heated or left in an open system. Since it diffuses to the surroundings, it is necessary to install a local exhaust device in the case of processing in large quantities. Therefore, if a dispersion medium that does not contain an organic solvent as a main component can be used, it is desirable in terms of environment and work.

そのため、主成分が水である溶媒中に有機酸またはその誘導体により保護された銀ナノ粒子が分散した銀ナノ粒子組成物が提案されている(例えば、特許文献1参照)。この銀ナノ粒子組成物を導電性インクとして使用すれば、低温で短時間の熱処理でも銀ナノ粒子同士を焼結させて基材上に良好な配線や導電回路など形成することができる。   Therefore, a silver nanoparticle composition in which silver nanoparticles protected with an organic acid or a derivative thereof are dispersed in a solvent whose main component is water has been proposed (see, for example, Patent Document 1). If this silver nanoparticle composition is used as a conductive ink, it is possible to sinter silver nanoparticles with low-temperature and short-time heat treatment to form good wirings and conductive circuits on the substrate.

国際公開第2012/026033号(段落番号0016)International Publication No. 2012/026033 (paragraph number 0016)

しかし、工業的に通常用いられているロール・ツー・ロールの連続式のフレキソ印刷機により、特許文献1の金属ナノ粒子組成物を導電性インクとして使用して、複雑なデザインの配線の形状に基板上に印刷すると、隣接して対向する配線部分の間に鳥の水かき状の薄膜が形成され、熱処理して形成される配線の短絡が生じ易くなるという問題がある。このような薄膜は、特許文献1の銀ナノ粒子組成物中の有機酸またはその誘導体と(銀ナノ粒子の合成時や反応後のpH調整のために添加された)アンモニアとの反応物に起因すると考えられる。   However, with a roll-to-roll continuous flexo printing machine that is usually used industrially, the metal nanoparticle composition of Patent Document 1 is used as a conductive ink to form a complicated wiring design. When printed on a substrate, there is a problem that a bird's web-like thin film is formed between adjacent and opposing wiring portions, and a short circuit of the wiring formed by heat treatment tends to occur. Such a thin film is caused by a reaction product of an organic acid or a derivative thereof in the silver nanoparticle composition of Patent Document 1 and ammonia (added for pH adjustment after the synthesis of silver nanoparticles or after the reaction). I think that.

このような薄膜の形成は、低容量のアニロックスロールを使用すれば防止することができるが、低容量のアニロックスロールを使用すると、導電性インクの転写率が低下して、熱処理して形成される配線の膜厚が薄くなって抵抗が高くなるという問題がある。
したがって、本発明は、このような従来の問題点に鑑み、フレキソ印刷により基材上に所望の配線形状に印刷することができるとともに、熱処理して基板上に形成した配線の抵抗の低下を防止することができる、銀微粒子分散液を提供することを目的とする。
The formation of such a thin film can be prevented by using a low-capacity anilox roll. However, if a low-capacity anilox roll is used, the transfer rate of the conductive ink is lowered, and the thin film is formed by heat treatment. There is a problem that the thickness of the wiring is reduced and the resistance is increased.
Therefore, in view of such a conventional problem, the present invention can print a desired wiring shape on a base material by flexographic printing, and prevent a decrease in resistance of wiring formed on a substrate by heat treatment. An object of the present invention is to provide a silver fine particle dispersion that can be obtained.

本発明者らは、上記課題を解決するために鋭意研究した結果、有機酸またはその誘導体で被覆された銀微粒子が水系分散媒中に分散し、アンモニアと硝酸を含む銀微粒子分散液に形状保持剤を添加することにより、フレキソ印刷により基材上に所望の配線形状に印刷することができるとともに、熱処理して基板上に形成した配線の抵抗の低下を防止することができる、銀微粒子分散液を提供することができることを見出し、本発明を完成するに至った。   As a result of diligent research to solve the above problems, the inventors of the present invention dispersed silver fine particles coated with an organic acid or a derivative thereof in an aqueous dispersion medium and maintained the shape in a silver fine particle dispersion containing ammonia and nitric acid. By adding an agent, a silver fine particle dispersion that can be printed in a desired wiring shape on a base material by flexographic printing and can prevent a decrease in the resistance of a wiring formed on a substrate by heat treatment The present invention has been found to be able to be provided.

すなわち、本発明による銀微粒子分散液は、有機酸またはその誘導体で被覆された銀微粒子が水系分散媒中に分散し、アンモニアと硝酸を含む銀微粒子分散液において、形状保持剤が添加されていることを特徴とする。   That is, in the silver fine particle dispersion according to the present invention, silver fine particles coated with an organic acid or a derivative thereof are dispersed in an aqueous dispersion medium, and a shape retention agent is added to the silver fine particle dispersion containing ammonia and nitric acid.

As the surface conditioner, it is preferable to use a surface conditioner containing polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and poly (oxyethylene) alkyl ether or polyether. Moreover, you may use an antifoamer as a shape retention agent, and it is preferable that content of the antifoamer in silver fine particle dispersion is 0.005-0.6 mass%. As the antifoaming agent, it is preferable to use a silicone antifoaming agent.

また、銀微粒子分散液の液中のアンモニアの濃度が0.1〜2.0質量%であるのが好ましく、硝酸の濃度が0.1〜6.0質量%であるのが好ましい。また、銀微粒子分散液のpHが5.3〜8.0であるのが好ましく、水系分散媒が50質量%以上の水を含む溶媒であるのが好ましい。また、銀微粒子分散液中の銀微粒子の含有量が30〜75質量%であるのが好ましく、銀微粒子の平均粒径が1〜100nmであるのが好ましく、有機酸が炭素数5〜8のカルボン酸であるのが好ましい。また、銀微粒子分散液中の銀に対する有機酸またはその誘導体の量が2〜20質量%であるのが好ましく、銀微粒子分散液のラメラ長の平均値が4.6mm以下であるのが好ましい。   Moreover, it is preferable that the density | concentration of ammonia in the liquid of a silver fine particle dispersion is 0.1-2.0 mass%, and it is preferable that the density | concentration of nitric acid is 0.1-6.0 mass%. The pH of the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 5.3 to 8.0, and the aqueous dispersion medium is preferably a solvent containing 50% by mass or more of water. Further, the content of silver fine particles in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 30 to 75% by mass, the average particle size of the silver fine particles is preferably 1 to 100 nm, and the organic acid has 5 to 8 carbon atoms. A carboxylic acid is preferred. The amount of the organic acid or derivative thereof relative to silver in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 2 to 20% by mass, and the average value of the lamella length of the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 4.6 mm or less.

なお、本明細書中において、「銀微粒子の平均粒径」とは、銀微粒子の透過型電子顕微鏡写真(TEM像)による一次粒子径の平均値である一次粒子平均径(平均一次粒径)をいう。   In the present specification, “average particle diameter of silver fine particles” refers to an average primary particle diameter (average primary particle diameter) that is an average value of primary particle diameters according to a transmission electron micrograph (TEM image) of silver fine particles. Say.

また、「ラメラ長」とは、液体膜がどれだけ伸びるかを示す指標であり、リング(ラメラ長測定子)を液体に浸漬した後に鉛直方向に引き上げて、リングと液体面との間に形成された液体膜によりリングに働く力が最大になってから、液体膜が切れるまでのリングの引き上げ距離をラメラ長として測定することができる。本明細書中において、「ラメラ長の平均値」とは、ラメラ長測定子として線材直径0.40mm、リング直径14.4mmの白金リングを使用し、自動表面張力計により、ステージ上下速度1.0mm/秒、プリウェットステージ上下速度1.0mm/秒、プリウェット浸漬距離2.50mm、プリウェット浸漬時間5秒で測定したときに、ラメラ長の6回の測定値の平均値をいう。   The “lamellar length” is an index that indicates how much the liquid film extends. It is formed between the ring and the liquid surface by immersing the ring (lamellar length measuring element) in the liquid and then pulling it up in the vertical direction. The pulling distance of the ring from when the force acting on the ring is maximized by the formed liquid film until the liquid film is cut can be measured as the lamella length. In the present specification, the “average value of lamella length” means that a platinum ring having a wire diameter of 0.40 mm and a ring diameter of 14.4 mm is used as a lamella length gauge, and the vertical speed of the stage is 1. When measured at 0 mm / second, pre-wet stage vertical speed of 1.0 mm / second, pre-wet immersion distance of 2.50 mm, and pre-wet immersion time of 5 seconds, it means the average value of six measurements of lamella length.

Can be provided.

本発明による銀微粒子分散液の実施の形態は、有機酸またはその誘導体で被覆された銀微粒子が水系分散媒中に分散し、アンモニアと硝酸を含む銀微粒子分散液において、形状保持剤が添加されている。   In the embodiment of the silver fine particle dispersion according to the present invention, silver fine particles coated with an organic acid or a derivative thereof are dispersed in an aqueous dispersion medium, and a shape preservative is added to the silver fine particle dispersion containing ammonia and nitric acid. ing.

水系分散媒は、水を主成分とする溶媒であり、好ましくは50質量%以上、さらに好ましくは75質量%以上の水を含む溶媒である。この水系分散媒の粘度を調整するために、銀微粒子分散液に対して10質量%以下のポリウレタンシックナーなどのシックナー(増粘剤)を添加してもよく、湿潤のために10質量%以下のプロピレングリコールなどの有機溶媒を添加してもよい。また、水系分散媒と基材との密着性をより強固にするために、水中に高分子が安定して懸濁および分散した水性分散樹脂を添加してもよい。この水性分散樹脂として、塩化ビニルなどの水性ラテックスなどを使用することができる。水性分散樹脂の添加量は、0.5〜8質量%であるのが好ましく、1〜7質量%であるのがさらに好ましい。0.5質量%未満では基材との密着性をより強固にするには十分ではなく、8質量%よりも多いと、銀微粒子分散液中に凝集塊が発生するなど、分散性が悪化するととともに、塗膜化する際の導電性に悪影響を及ぼすため好ましくない。   The aqueous dispersion medium is a solvent containing water as a main component, and is preferably a solvent containing 50% by mass or more, more preferably 75% by mass or more. In order to adjust the viscosity of the aqueous dispersion medium, a thickener (thickener) such as polyurethane thickener of 10% by mass or less may be added to the silver fine particle dispersion, and 10% by mass or less for wetting. An organic solvent such as propylene glycol may be added. In order to further strengthen the adhesion between the aqueous dispersion medium and the substrate, an aqueous dispersion resin in which a polymer is stably suspended and dispersed in water may be added. As this aqueous dispersion resin, aqueous latex such as vinyl chloride can be used. The addition amount of the aqueous dispersion resin is preferably 0.5 to 8% by mass, and more preferably 1 to 7% by mass. If it is less than 0.5% by mass, it is not sufficient to further strengthen the adhesion to the substrate, and if it exceeds 8% by mass, the dispersibility deteriorates, for example, aggregates are generated in the silver fine particle dispersion. At the same time, it adversely affects the conductivity when forming a coating film, which is not preferable.

形状保持剤として、表面調整剤または消泡剤を使用するのが好ましく、表面調整剤が水に不溶性であるのが好ましい。銀微粒子分散液に表面調整剤(好ましくは水に不溶性の表面調整剤)や消泡剤を添加すると、銀微粒子分散液を複雑なデザインの配線の形状に基板上に印刷した場合でも、隣接して対向する配線部分の間に鳥の水かき状の薄膜が形成されるのを抑制し、熱処理して形成される配線の短絡を防止することができる。また、銀微粒子分散液中の泡を消したり、銀微粒子分散液を基板上に塗布して塗膜を形成した際に、塗膜の表面の泡を消して塗膜を均一の厚さにすることもできる。形状保持剤として表面調整剤を使用する場合には、銀微粒子分散液中の表面調整剤の含有量が0.15〜0.6質量%であるのが好ましく、0.2〜0.5質量%であるのがさらに好ましい。また、形状保持剤として消泡剤を使用する場合には、銀微粒子分散液中の消泡剤の含有量が0.005〜0.6質量%であるのが好ましく、0.01〜0.3質量%であるのがさらに好ましい。   As the shape-retaining agent, it is preferable to use a surface conditioner or an antifoaming agent, and the surface conditioner is preferably insoluble in water. When a surface conditioner (preferably a water-insoluble surface conditioner) or antifoaming agent is added to the silver fine particle dispersion, the silver fine particle dispersion is adjoined even when printed on the substrate in the shape of a complicatedly designed wiring. Thus, it is possible to suppress the formation of a bird's web-like thin film between the wiring portions facing each other, and to prevent a short circuit of the wiring formed by heat treatment. Also, when the foam in the silver fine particle dispersion is erased or when the silver fine particle dispersion is applied onto the substrate to form a coating film, the foam on the surface of the coating film is erased to make the coating thickness uniform. You can also. When using a surface conditioner as the shape-retaining agent, the content of the surface conditioner in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 0.15 to 0.6% by mass, and 0.2 to 0.5% by mass. % Is more preferable. Moreover, when using an antifoamer as a shape retention agent, it is preferable that content of the antifoamer in silver fine particle dispersion is 0.005-0.6 mass%, and 0.01-0. More preferably, it is 3 mass%.

表面調整剤としては、ポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンとポリ(オキシエチレン)アルキルエーテルまたはポリエーテルとを含む表面調整剤を使用するのが好ましい。ポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンとポリ(オキシエチレン)アルキルエーテルを含む表面調整剤としては、不揮発成分を95質量%以上含み、表面張力低下能力が中程度であり、43質量%のポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンと57質量%のポリ(オキシエチレン)アルキルエーテルを含む表面調整剤(BYK社製のBYK302)を使用することができる。ポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンとポリエーテルを含む表面調整剤としては、不揮発成分を98質量%以上含み、表面張力低下能力が中程度であり、ポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンとポリエーテルの混合物からなる表面調整剤(BYK社製のBYK331)や、不揮発成分を97質量%以上含み、表面張力低下能力が高く、ポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンとポリエーテルの混合物からなる表面調整剤(BYK社製のBYK333)を使用することができる。   As the surface conditioner, it is preferable to use a surface conditioner containing polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and poly (oxyethylene) alkyl ether or polyether. The surface conditioner containing polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and poly (oxyethylene) alkyl ether contains 95% by mass or more of non-volatile components, has a moderate surface tension reducing ability, and is 43% by mass of polyether-modified polydimethyl. A surface conditioner (BYK302 manufactured by BYK) containing siloxane and 57% by mass of poly (oxyethylene) alkyl ether can be used. As a surface conditioner containing polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and polyether, a surface composed of a mixture of polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and polyether, containing 98% by mass or more of non-volatile components and having a moderate surface tension reducing ability. Conditioner (BYK331 manufactured by BYK) and a surface conditioner comprising a mixture of polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and polyether (BYK333 manufactured by BYK) that contains 97% by mass or more of non-volatile components and has a high surface tension reducing ability. Can be used.

消泡剤としては、シリコーン消泡剤を使用するのが好ましい。このシリコーン消泡剤として、信越化学株式会社製のKM−7750(有効成分38%)やKM−90(有効成分53%)を使用することができる。   As the antifoaming agent, it is preferable to use a silicone antifoaming agent. As this silicone antifoaming agent, KM-7750 (active ingredient 38%) and KM-90 (active ingredient 53%) manufactured by Shin-Etsu Chemical Co., Ltd. can be used.

銀微粒子分散液の液中のアンモニアの濃度は、0.1〜2.0質量%であるのが好ましく、0.2〜1.5質量%であるのがさらに好ましい。アンモニア濃度が0.1質量%未満であると、銀微粒子分散液中の銀微粒子の2次凝集体が大きくなって銀微粒子の沈降が激しくなり、銀微粒子分散液を基板上に塗布して焼成することにより形成された銀導電膜の導電性が悪化する。一方、アンモニア濃度が2.0質量%を超えると、イオン強度が高くなり過ぎて、銀微粒子が激しく凝集する。   The concentration of ammonia in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 0.1 to 2.0 mass%, more preferably 0.2 to 1.5 mass%. When the ammonia concentration is less than 0.1% by mass, the secondary aggregates of silver fine particles in the silver fine particle dispersion become large and the silver fine particles settle down, and the silver fine particle dispersion is applied onto the substrate and fired. As a result, the conductivity of the silver conductive film formed deteriorates. On the other hand, when the ammonia concentration exceeds 2.0% by mass, the ionic strength becomes too high and the silver fine particles agglomerate violently.

銀微粒子分散液の液中の硝酸の濃度は、0.1〜6.0質量%であるのが好ましく、0.3〜5.0質量%であるのがさらに好ましい。硝酸の濃度が0.1質量%未満であると、銀微粒子分散液を基板上に塗布した塗膜を加熱して焼成することにより銀導電膜を形成する際に、銀微粒子分散液に添加した樹脂などの分解を促進することができなくなり、低温焼結性が悪化する。一方、硝酸の濃度が6.0質量%を超えると、イオン強度が高くなり過ぎて、銀微粒子が激しく凝集する。   The concentration of nitric acid in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 0.1 to 6.0% by mass, and more preferably 0.3 to 5.0% by mass. When the concentration of nitric acid is less than 0.1% by mass, the silver fine particle dispersion was added to the silver fine particle dispersion when forming a silver conductive film by heating and baking the coating film coated on the substrate. Decomposition of resin or the like cannot be promoted, and the low temperature sinterability deteriorates. On the other hand, when the concentration of nitric acid exceeds 6.0% by mass, the ionic strength becomes too high and silver fine particles agglomerate violently.

銀微粒子は、平均粒径が1〜100nmであり、1〜50nmであるのが好ましく、1〜30nmであるのがさらに好ましく、1〜20nmであるのが最も好ましい。平均粒径が100nmよりも大きいと、銀微粒子として期待される低温焼結性が得られ難くなる。また、銀微粒子分散液中の銀微粒子の含有量は、30〜75質量%であるのが好ましく、55〜75質量%であるのがさらに好ましい。銀微粒子分散液中の銀微粒子の含有量が少な過ぎると、銀微粒子分散液を使用して形成した配線や導電回路などの導電性が悪くなり、銀微粒子分散液中の銀微粒子の含有量が多過ぎると、銀微粒子分散液の粘度が高くなり過ぎて、基銀微粒子分散液を基板上に良好に印刷することができなくなる。   The silver fine particles have an average particle diameter of 1 to 100 nm, preferably 1 to 50 nm, more preferably 1 to 30 nm, and most preferably 1 to 20 nm. When the average particle size is larger than 100 nm, it is difficult to obtain the low-temperature sinterability expected as silver fine particles. Further, the content of silver fine particles in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 30 to 75% by mass, and more preferably 55 to 75% by mass. If the silver fine particle content in the silver fine particle dispersion is too small, the conductivity of the wiring or conductive circuit formed using the silver fine particle dispersion will deteriorate, and the silver fine particle content in the silver fine particle dispersion will be reduced. If the amount is too large, the viscosity of the silver fine particle dispersion becomes too high and the base silver fine particle dispersion cannot be printed satisfactorily on the substrate.

銀微粒子は、表面が炭素数5〜8のカルボン酸(例えば、ヘプタン酸)のような有機酸またはその誘導体で被覆されているのが好ましい。このような被覆により銀微粒子間の焼結を防ぎ、銀微粒子間の距離を適度に保つことができる。炭素数が8よりも大きくなると、熱分解時に高い熱エネルギーが必要となり、一方、炭素数が3より小さくなると、銀微粒子間の距離を適度に保つことができなくなる。   The surface of the silver fine particles is preferably coated with an organic acid such as a carboxylic acid having 5 to 8 carbon atoms (for example, heptanoic acid) or a derivative thereof. Such a coating prevents sintering between the silver fine particles and keeps the distance between the silver fine particles moderate. If the carbon number is greater than 8, high thermal energy is required during pyrolysis. On the other hand, if the carbon number is smaller than 3, the distance between the silver fine particles cannot be maintained appropriately.

銀微粒子分散液のpHは、5.3〜8.0であるのが好ましい。pHが5.3より低いと、銀微粒子分散液中の有機酸やその誘導体がほとんど溶解しないため、銀微粒子の表面から過剰な有機酸やその誘導体を解離させることができず、pHが8.0より高いと、銀微粒子分散液中の有機酸やその誘導体の溶解度が高くなり過ぎて、銀微粒子同士を分散させるために十分な量の有機酸やその誘導体により銀微粒子を被覆することができなくなるため、銀微粒子同士が凝集する。   The pH of the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 5.3 to 8.0. When the pH is lower than 5.3, the organic acid and its derivative in the silver fine particle dispersion are hardly dissolved. Therefore, the excess organic acid and its derivative cannot be dissociated from the surface of the silver fine particle, and the pH is 8. If it is higher than 0, the solubility of the organic acid or its derivative in the silver fine particle dispersion becomes too high, and the silver fine particle can be coated with a sufficient amount of the organic acid or its derivative to disperse the silver fine particles. Since it disappears, silver fine particles aggregate.

銀微粒子分散液の粘度は、25℃において11.7(1/s)、108(1/s)および1000(1/s)で、それぞれ10,000mPa・s以下、2,000mPa・s以下、500mPa・s以下であるのが好ましい。銀微粒子分散液の粘度が高過ぎると、銀微粒子分散液を基板上に塗布した際の塗膜の表面が粗くなるとともに、銀微粒子分散液を基板上に連続的に印刷する場合に、銀微粒子分散液を供給し難くなり、良好に印刷することができなくなる。   The viscosity of the silver fine particle dispersion is 11.7 (1 / s), 108 (1 / s) and 1000 (1 / s) at 25 ° C., respectively, 10,000 mPa · s or less, 2,000 mPa · s or less, It is preferably 500 mPa · s or less. When the viscosity of the silver fine particle dispersion is too high, the surface of the coating film becomes rough when the silver fine particle dispersion is applied to the substrate, and the silver fine particle dispersion is continuously printed on the substrate. It becomes difficult to supply the dispersion and printing cannot be performed satisfactorily.

銀微粒子分散液中の銀に対する有機酸またはその誘導体の量は、2〜20質量%であるのが好ましい。2質量%未満であると、銀微粒子を被覆して保護する効果が著しく低下し、銀微粒子の凝集体を生じ、低温焼結性が悪化する。一方、20質量%を超えると、有機酸やその誘導体の沸点が水よりも高いことから、低温で且つ短時間で焼結させることができなくなる。   The amount of the organic acid or derivative thereof relative to silver in the silver fine particle dispersion is preferably 2 to 20% by mass. If it is less than 2% by mass, the effect of covering and protecting the silver fine particles is remarkably reduced, and aggregates of silver fine particles are produced, and the low-temperature sinterability deteriorates. On the other hand, if it exceeds 20% by mass, the boiling point of the organic acid or its derivative is higher than that of water, so that it cannot be sintered at a low temperature in a short time.

なお、銀微粒子の平均粒径(一次粒子平均径)は、例えば、60質量%のAg粒子と3.0質量%の塩化ビニルコポリマーラテックスと2.0質量%のポリウレタンシックナーと2.5質量%のプロピレングリコールとを含む水系Agインクなどの銀微粒子を含む水系Agインク2質量部をシクロヘキサン96質量部とオレイン酸2質量部の混合溶液に添加し、超音波によって分散させた後、得られた分散溶液を支持膜付きCuマイクログリッドに滴下して乾燥させ、このマイクログリッド上の銀微粒子を透過型電子顕微鏡(日本電子株式会社製のJEM−100CXMark−II型)により加速電圧100kVとして明視野で観察した像を倍率300,000倍で撮影し、得られたTEM像から算出することができる。この銀微粒子の一次粒子平均径の算出は、例えば、画像解析ソフト(旭化成エンジニアリング株式会社製のA像くん(登録商標))を使用して行うことができる。この画像解析ソフトは、色の濃淡で個々の粒子を識別して解析するものであり、例えば、300,000倍のTEM像に対して「粒子の明度」を「暗」、「雑音除去フィルタ」を「有」、「円形しきい値」を「20」、「重なり度」を「50」とする条件で円形粒子解析を行って、200個以上の粒子について一次粒子径を測定し、その数平均径を求めて一次粒子平均径とすることができる。なお、TEM像中に凝結粒子や異形粒子が多数ある場合には、測定不能とすればよい。   The average particle diameter (primary particle average diameter) of the silver fine particles is, for example, 60% by mass of Ag particles, 3.0% by mass of vinyl chloride copolymer latex, 2.0% by mass of polyurethane thickener, and 2.5% by mass. Obtained by adding 2 parts by mass of an aqueous Ag ink containing silver fine particles such as an aqueous Ag ink containing propylene glycol to a mixed solution of 96 parts by mass of cyclohexane and 2 parts by mass of oleic acid and dispersing by ultrasonic waves. The dispersion solution is dropped onto a Cu microgrid with a support film and dried, and the silver fine particles on the microgrid are brightened at an accelerating voltage of 100 kV with a transmission electron microscope (JEM-100CXMark-II type manufactured by JEOL Ltd.) in a bright field. The observed image can be taken at a magnification of 300,000 and calculated from the obtained TEM image. The primary particle average diameter of the silver fine particles can be calculated using, for example, image analysis software (A Image-kun (registered trademark) manufactured by Asahi Kasei Engineering Co., Ltd.). This image analysis software discriminates and analyzes individual particles based on color shading. For example, for a 300,000-fold TEM image, the “particle brightness” is “dark” and “noise removal filter”. Is “Yes”, “Circular threshold” is “20”, and “Overlapping degree” is “50”, and circular particle analysis is performed to measure the primary particle diameter of 200 or more particles. An average diameter can be calculated | required and it can be set as an average primary particle diameter. In addition, what is necessary is just to make measurement impossible when there are many condensed particles and irregular-shaped particles in a TEM image.

また、銀微粒子分散液のラメラ長は、ラメラ長測定子として線材直径0.40mm、リング直径14.4mmの白金リングを使用し、自動表面張力計により、ステージ上下速度1.0mm/秒、プリウェットステージ上下速度1.0mm/秒、プリウェット浸漬距離2.50mm、プリウェット浸漬時間5秒で測定したときに、6回の測定値の平均値が4.6mm以下であるのが好ましい。このラメラ長の平均値が4.6mmより長くなると、複雑なデザインの配線の形状に基板上に印刷した場合に、隣接して対向する配線部分の間に鳥の水かき状の薄膜が形成され、熱処理して形成される配線の短絡が生じ易くなる。   The lamella length of the silver fine particle dispersion is a platinum ring having a wire diameter of 0.40 mm and a ring diameter of 14.4 mm as a lamella length measuring element. When measured at a wet stage up / down speed of 1.0 mm / second, a pre-wet immersion distance of 2.50 mm, and a pre-wet immersion time of 5 seconds, the average value of the six measurements is preferably 4.6 mm or less. When the average value of this lamella length is longer than 4.6 mm, when a complicated design of the wiring shape is printed on the substrate, a bird's webbed thin film is formed between adjacent wiring portions, Short circuit of the wiring formed by heat treatment is likely to occur.

また、フレキソ印刷機を使用し、アニロックス容量20cc/m(150線/インチ)、印刷速度20m/分として、紙の基材上に、図1Aに示す形状および大きさの塗膜(長さ30mm×幅9.5mmの領域内に線幅0.5mm、幅方向間隔0.5mmで折り返した塗膜)を形成するように銀微粒子分散液を(矢印Bで示す方向に)塗布したときに、図1Bに斜線で示す領域に形成された(銀微粒子分散液の)水かき状の薄膜の長さLが10mm以下であるのが好ましい。 Also, using a flexographic printing machine, with an anilox capacity of 20 cc / m 2 (150 lines / inch), a printing speed of 20 m / min, a coating film (length) having a shape and size shown in FIG. When the silver fine particle dispersion is applied (in the direction indicated by arrow B) so as to form a coating film folded back with a line width of 0.5 mm and a widthwise interval of 0.5 mm in an area of 30 mm × width of 9.5 mm The length L of the web-like thin film (of the silver fine particle dispersion) formed in the hatched region in FIG. 1B is preferably 10 mm or less.

以下、本発明による銀微粒子分散液の実施例について詳細に説明する。   Hereinafter, examples of the silver fine particle dispersion according to the present invention will be described in detail.

[実施例1]
まず、28質量%のアンモニア水0.31kgとヘプタン酸0.36kgをイオン交換水1.2kgに混合した原料液Aと、85質量%の含水ヒドラジン0.39kgをイオン交換水1.0kgで希釈した原料液Bと、硝酸銀結晶1.4kgを加温したイオン交換水1.2kgに溶解させた原料液Cを用意した。
[Example 1]
First, a raw material liquid A prepared by mixing 0.31 kg of 28% by mass of ammonia water and 0.36 kg of heptanoic acid with 1.2 kg of ion-exchanged water and 0.39 kg of 85% by mass of hydrous hydrazine were diluted with 1.0 kg of ion-exchanged water. A raw material liquid B prepared by dissolving 1.4 kg of silver nitrate crystals in 1.2 kg of heated ion-exchanged water was prepared.

次に、還流冷却器付の反応槽にイオン交換水を11kg添加して攪拌しながら加熱し、液温が30〜50℃の範囲になったときに、攪拌しながら原料液A、B、Cを順次添加して、銀微粒子の合成反応を開始させた。この反応中に液温が60℃以上にならないように、反応槽に設置した冷却管により反応槽内を冷却した。この反応槽の冷却を止めても、反応熱による昇温がなくなった時点で反応終了した。   Next, 11 kg of ion exchange water was added to a reaction tank equipped with a reflux condenser and heated while stirring. When the liquid temperature was in the range of 30 to 50 ° C., the raw material liquids A, B, and C were stirred. Were sequentially added to initiate the silver fine particle synthesis reaction. The reaction tank was cooled by a cooling pipe installed in the reaction tank so that the liquid temperature did not exceed 60 ° C. during the reaction. Even when the cooling of the reaction vessel was stopped, the reaction was completed when the temperature was not increased due to the reaction heat.

この反応により得られた反応液(ヘプタン酸が周囲に配置された銀微粒子を含む液)を別の容器に移して24時間静置した後、上澄み液を取り除いて反応液を濃縮した。このようにして得られた濃縮物を気密性の高い蓋付き瓶に入れて冷暗所で3か月静置した後、上澄み液を適度に取り除いて、さらに濃縮された反応液を得た。   The reaction solution obtained by this reaction (a solution containing silver fine particles around which heptanoic acid is arranged) was transferred to another container and allowed to stand for 24 hours, and then the supernatant was removed to concentrate the reaction solution. The concentrate thus obtained was placed in a highly airtight lidded bottle and allowed to stand in a cool and dark place for 3 months, and then the supernatant was removed appropriately to obtain a further concentrated reaction solution.

このようにして濃縮された反応液にアンモニア水を添加してpH6.0に調整し、3日間静置して(銀微粒子の周囲から)過剰なヘプタン酸を解離させた後、上澄み液を取り除いて、ヘプタン酸で被覆された銀微粒子を含む液を得た。なお、この銀微粒子の平均粒径は18nmであった。   Ammonia water is added to the reaction solution thus concentrated to adjust the pH to 6.0, and left to stand for 3 days (from around the silver fine particles) to dissociate excess heptanoic acid, and then the supernatant is removed. Thus, a liquid containing silver fine particles coated with heptanoic acid was obtained. The average particle diameter of the silver fine particles was 18 nm.

このようにして得られた(ヘプタン酸で被覆された)銀微粒子を含む液に、(基板上に塗布する際に基板との密着性を高めるために高TgポリマーとしてTgが73℃の)塩化ビニルコポリマーラテックスと、(粘度調整のために)ポリウレタンシックナーと、(湿潤剤として)プロピレングリコールと、(銀濃度を調整するために)上記のpH調整後に得られた上澄み液を添加して攪拌することにより、61質量%銀微粒子と、3.0質量%の塩化ビニルコポリマーラテックス(Tg=73℃)と、2.0質量%のポリウレタンシックナーと、2.5質量%のプロピレングリコールを含む導電性Agインクを得た。   The liquid containing silver fine particles (coated with heptanoic acid) obtained in this way is chlorinated (with a Tg of 73 ° C. as a high Tg polymer in order to enhance adhesion to the substrate when applied on the substrate). Add vinyl copolymer latex, polyurethane thickener (for viscosity adjustment), propylene glycol (as wetting agent), and supernatant obtained after pH adjustment (to adjust silver concentration) and stir. Conductive material containing 61% by weight silver fine particles, 3.0% by weight vinyl chloride copolymer latex (Tg = 73 ° C.), 2.0% by weight polyurethane thickener, and 2.5% by weight propylene glycol. Ag ink was obtained.

この導電性Agインク200gに、43質量%のポリエーテル変性ポリジメチルシロキサンと57質量%のポリ(オキシエチレン)アルキルエーテルとからなる表面調整剤(BYK社製のBYK302)(不揮発成分を95質量%以上含み、表面張力低下能力が中程度)0.41g(Agインクに対して0.20質量%)と、上記のpH調整前に得られた上澄み液4.98gを添加して、Ag濃度59.4質量%の銀微粒子分散液を得た。   In 200 g of this conductive Ag ink, a surface conditioner (BYK302 manufactured by BYK) consisting of 43% by mass of polyether-modified polydimethylsiloxane and 57% by mass of poly (oxyethylene) alkyl ether (95% by mass of non-volatile components) In addition, 0.41 g (0.20 mass% with respect to Ag ink) and 4.98 g of the supernatant obtained before the pH adjustment described above were added, and the Ag concentration was 59. A 4% by mass silver fine particle dispersion was obtained.

このようにして得られた銀微粒子分散液をメンブレンフィルタと超遠心分離機により固液分離し、液体中のアンモニア濃度と硝酸濃度をイオンクロマトグラフにより測定したところ、アンモニア濃度は0.4質量%であり、硝酸濃度は1.0質量%であった。また、銀微粒子分散液に硝酸を過剰に添加して加熱し、完全に金属成分を溶解させた後、n−ヘキサンで4回抽出し、その後、ガスクロマトグラフ質量分析計(ヒューレット・パッカード社製)により、有機酸(ヘプタン酸)を定量したところ、銀に対するヘプタン酸の量は5質量%であった。なお、以下に示す実施例2〜12および比較例1〜7において、銀微粒子分散液の液中のアンモニア濃度および硝酸濃度と銀に対するヘプタン酸の量は上記の値とほぼ同じ値(それぞれ0.4質量%、1.0質量%および5質量%)であった。   The silver fine particle dispersion thus obtained was solid-liquid separated with a membrane filter and an ultracentrifuge, and the ammonia concentration and nitric acid concentration in the liquid were measured by ion chromatography. The ammonia concentration was 0.4% by mass. The nitric acid concentration was 1.0% by mass. In addition, excessive addition of nitric acid to the silver fine particle dispersion and heating to completely dissolve the metal component, followed by extraction with n-hexane four times, followed by a gas chromatograph mass spectrometer (manufactured by Hewlett-Packard) The amount of heptanoic acid relative to silver was 5% by mass. In Examples 2 to 12 and Comparative Examples 1 to 7 shown below, the ammonia concentration and the nitric acid concentration in the liquid of the silver fine particle dispersion and the amount of heptanoic acid relative to silver were substantially the same values as described above (each 0. 4 mass%, 1.0 mass% and 5 mass%).
